Benefits of technology

This patent describes a composition that contains peptides from a protein called ApoB-100, as well as variants, mimics, and analogues thereof. These peptides can be used to enhance or induce an immune response, which can help treat, inhibit, prevent, or promote prophylaxis of kidney disease. The composition can be administered as a pharmaceutical or in a carrier that enhances the immune response.

Problems solved by technology

AngII is a potent vaso-active peptide which causes blood vessels to constrict, resulting in increased blood pressure.
This increases the volume of fluid in the body, which also increases blood pressure.

[0117]The following example is provided to better illustrate the claimed invention and is not to be interpreted as limiting the scope of the invention. To the extent that specific materials are mentioned, it is merely for purposes of illustration and is not intended to limit the invention. One skilled in the art may develop equivalent means or reactants without the exercise of inventive capacity and without departing from the scope of the invention.

[0118]The inventors assessed the effect of p210 immunization on AngII-induced renal inflammatory responses in apoE (− / −) male mice. For the experiments described herein, native p210 peptide (KTTKQ SFDLS VKAQY KKNKH) was conjugated to cationic bovine serum albumin (cBSA) as carrier. Alum was used as an adjuvant. At 7, 10, and 12 weeks of age, male apoE (− / −) mice were subcutaneously injected with 100 μg of p210 / cBSA / Alum. As immunization controls, 100 μg of cBSA / Alum, or PBS were injected. At 10 weeks of age after first immunization booste...
